Lately I fantasize about being a billionaire who could totally afford to buy Twitter off Elon for what he put up, but I'd lowball him somewhere in the low hundreds of millions. I'd say, "I'm not actually interested in running Twitter. The brand's so tarnished, I just want to put it to bed and pay off the related debts that you've been racking up for god knows why."
When you think about it the pack leds would be Trump supporters but then if you think about it some more you realize the pack led are smarter than that they just playe dumber than they actually are which is well known in the newer animated series and the lore and books.
2010 Maybe this SpaceX thing is cool even for a robber baron turned philanthropist. 2018 lmao he accused a rescue diver of being a pedophile because they vetoed his dumbass untested submersible rescue plan. 2022 "I will abide by the results of this poll" still waiting on that.
This actually makes a lot of sense, because the Pakled aren't actually stupid. The stupidity is an evolved hunting mechanism so they appear dim witted to their intended prey. They're not as smart as you, but they're just smart enough to know how to ruin your existence. Unless you thinking Elon Musk is a good dude, then they're much smarter than you.
Saddest thing about the whole thing is that all he had to do was keep his mouth shut... But nope, had to be the center of attention. And with the spotlights it's radiantly apparent just how much of a fucking imbecile he actually is.
First one is the eccentric physicist Zefram Cochrane inventor of the warp-drive engine in the year 2063. Second is a Ferengi, who's civilization was built on free enterprise, where earning profit was the sole meaningful goal in life, superseding all other endeavors. Third one is a Pakled; One of the most notable aspects of Pakled is their low intelligence. They are often regarded as one of the least intelligent species in the galaxy.
While it has always had issues, it spent a lot of time being the cutting edge for news stories where official channels were either slow to report, biased, or actively engaging in suppression of the truth and was an invaluable tool for activism all over the world. That's all gone to shit though
That's a far cry from it actually saving lives though. That's a massively exaggerated claim by that user that requires some pretty extraordinary evidence.
Also, outright bigotry, hate-speech and death threats such as "Hang the left" as a username, saying all transgender people should be executed and that Jan 6 was a legit protest, not to mention all the covid and vaccine disinformation no longer gets moderated.

I lost any respect the moment he started cashing in on blatant market manipulation via social media.

I don't think about him at all

That line about Elon in Star Trek Discovery has not aged well.. Much like the show mind you.

Even now, I see a lot of people being like "this is all part of his plan", and it's like... no, he's lost too much. He's genuinely an idiot.

How big do you think his ego would have been if he actually got willing people to die on Mars for him/In his name?

The Paklads, at the very least, were smart enough to trick the Enterprise crew. Musk couldn't even fool his own reflection.

Best he could do is convince a bunch of dimwit dudebros that he's their alpha.

The Pakled also steal a bunch of stuff and cobble it together into a barely functioning pile, then use it to blackmail others to steal more stuff.
ballisticks
They're actually a decent threat in Lower Decks, until they blow up their own planet.
DatDarthCaedus
... and Elon is currently a decent thread, but blowing up his own social network (Twitter)... hmm

And that's why people like the Saudis were willing to give Elon money to screw it up.
rsmgod287
How’d he screw it up? I’m curious. I don’t use Twitter

Read the fucking news.
koops
Bought it, fired all the engineers that ran important parts. Banned a large number of users (ie journalists) blue tick=money

Ironic enough, I actually believed at one time that Elon was transgender in the first place, I thought he was FTM
